On Friday, February 27, another meeting of the Volyn Oblast Territorial Election Commission was held. The commission was supposed to adopt a decision on determining the winner of the elections to the oblast council in Turiisk district. Of the 14 members of the commission, 11 were present at the meeting. The commission meeting was also attended by four trusted persons of candidate Dziamulych I.V. (of course, teachers), one representative of district women's public organizations of Turiisk district and one journalist (the author of the material). At the meeting, all those present were familiarized with the explanation of the Central Election Commission (let us recall that at the previous meeting the members of the territorial commission decided to appeal to the CEC with a request to clarify how to act in the situation that had developed in the oblast), in which, apart from a list of a number of articles of the Law of Ukraine "On Elections of Deputies of Local Councils..." and confirmation that in the territory of the oblast the TEC is the only authorized body that can adopt decisions regarding the election process, nothing specific was stated. Thus, having not received substantive explanations from Kyiv, the TEC members, after discussing the situation among themselves and hearing the trusted persons of Mr. Dziamulych, settled on three draft decisions. The first of them provided for recognizing the February 8 elections as valid, and Mr. Dziamulych as the winner (6 people voted for this draft resolution, 2 — against, 3 — abstained). For the second proposal, which boiled down to recognizing the candidate following Dziamulych, i.e., Shyba B.P., as elected deputy of the oblast council, 3 people voted, the remaining 8 — against. The last proposal received the fewest votes — only 2, and it boiled down to recognizing the elections as invalid and announcing repeat elections, while allowing all candidates to run again. There were also 2 people against such a decision. The other 7 abstained. Thus, on Friday the commission was unable to adopt any decision (after all, according to paragraph 6 of Article 21 of the Law of Ukraine "On Elections of Deputies of Local Councils..." a majority of votes of the persons who are members of the commission is required for adopting a decision). And therefore, the issue of determining the winner of the elections in Turiisk is postponed to a later date. It is quite possible that on Saturday the TEC will meet again and try, having gathered in full composition, to adopt a final decision.
